… then shouldn’t they really have been completed this morning? Just wondering what the hold up is as apparently, presumably, everything is in place.
Brexit, getting overseas transfers and overseas players through the approval process could be longer.I don't know if there's been a change in the player registration process/contract legality approval but it does seem that transfers are taking longer to process than usual.
Likewise, I don’t see why the manager would say deals were so close to being done and then go completely quiet. Unless he said it as a distraction for something else, maybe. If they’re done then they’re done. If not then keep your mouth shut. Just my opinion though.There isn't really any rush to announce anything this week. As long as they are registered by noon Friday we are laughing. Players regularly train with their new club before the deals are announced
I thought the exact same thing, whats the betting its a few more days… then shouldn’t they really have been completed this morning? Just wondering what the hold up is as apparently, presumably, everything is in place.
If we are going to talk about 'what it used to be like' then the first you knew about it was when you read it in the Gazette on the Friday and the new player was in the team on the Saturday. That's what happened with John Hickton anyroad.I don't know if there's been a change in the player registration process/contract legality approval but it does seem that transfers are taking longer to process than usual.
It was always "player X is in for his medical" and bang, they were announced holding a shirt up within hours.
Signings are taking longer to announce even after it being well documented that a medical has taken place. The Spence deal wasn't 'officially' announced until a week after photos were circulating of him in a Spurs shirt.
Surely the people in charge of transfers don’t take Monday’s off?Are we normally in on a Monday? Maybe to do some light work? I’m expecting announcements tomorrow if I’m honest but yeah I’ve found it a bit strange too
Definetly not no but I was thinking more the media people for videos and announcements etcSurely the people in charge of transfers don’t take Monday’s off?
